Our Coffee/Progress Day is on Tuesday 14th November, make sure you have signed up for your slot with your child’s keyperson to discuss their progress. Normal preschool sessions will be shut on this day. You can bring your child to the appointment, we will have refreshment on offer, toys and activities will be available for the children. You must stay with your child and are responsible for your them at this time. It is a time you can meet their friends and other families for a chat.
Please make sure you are bringing in the items you signed up to on the snack and consumables list, and a big thank you to those who regularly donate items each week.
Friday is Children in Need. Be SPOTACULAR and come to preschool dressed up in spots and donate whatever you can afford on the door. Please do not worry if your child doesn’t want to dress up, we just want them to have a fun day.
Remember anyone applying for 30hrs funding for the Spring Term January 9th 2024 until 27th March 2024 must apply online to receive your code before we close in December.
A reminder to everyone that no food containing Nuts or Sesame must be brought onto the premises, in lunch boxes or for snacks. No food items or sweets are to be brought in by older siblings at drop off and pick up times. Thank you.
Please name all items belonging to your child, coats, bags, shoes, lunch bags, water bottles and uniform.
The children all need a named warm winter coat at preschool now the weather is colder, raincoats even with a fleece lining just are not warm enough for the garden. We are free flow so the doors are open throughout the session and the outside garden is available to the children throughout the day.
Scooters And Bikes Must Not Be Ridden into The Building for Health & Safety Reasons.
Please Leave Them Safely Outside of The Pre-School Lobby While Collecting Your Child
Thank you for your co-operation.
